And neither would he command you that you should take the angels and prophets as fosterers. What! would he command you to be infidels after you have submitted (as Muslims)? (R 8)

Al-‘Imran (The Family of Imran)
3-81
And when Allah took a pledge from the prophets, “”Behold! that which I give you of the book and wisdom, then (when) there comes to you a messenger confirming that which is with you, you must definitely believe in him and you must definitely help him (probably by propagating the news of the coming of Prophet Muhammed, among their respective followers).”” He asked, “”Do you agree and do you accept My burden (responsibility) concerning this (matter)?”” They replied, “”We agree.”” He said, “”Then bear witness and I am (also) with you from among those who bear witness.””
“Allah (SWT) appears to have taken a pledge from all the prophets (PBT) that they should inform their respective followers that His last Messenger will be Mohammed (PBH), which they fulfilled. Therefore if anyone turns away from the Quran revealed to prophet Mohammed (PBH) then he is a transgressor.”
3-82
So whoever turns back after this, then those only are the transgressors.

What! do they seek a religion other than the religion of Allah, when to Him submits whoever (and whatever) is in the skies and the earth willingly and unwillingly and towards Him they will be returned?
“Everything in the universe obeys Allah (SWT) willingly or unwillingly, therefore human beings too must obey Him i.e. accept Islam as their religion and seek no other religion because it will not be accepted. We are to declare that all Divine messages originally sent to various Prophets were true and we are not to make any difference between Prophets.”
3-84
Say, “”We believe in Allah and that which has been sent down on us and that which had been sent down on Ibrahim and Ismael and Ishaq and Yaqub and the tribes and that which had been given to Musa and Isa and the prophets, from their Fosterer, we make no distinction between any of them and we submit to Him (as Muslims).””
“Same to Verse No.83”
3-85
And whoever seeks a religion other than Islam, then it will not be accepted from him and in the hereafter he will be among those who are the losers.

How would Allah guide a people who became infidels after their belief, although they had borne witness that the messenger is true and there had come to them clear proofs? And Allah does not guide the unjust people.
“Owners of the book had believed earlier that Muhammed (PBH) would be raised as the last messenger of Allah (SWT) but when he actually came they rejected him. Such persons do not deserve guidance. On the contrary they are cursed by Allah (SWT), His angels and mankind and this curse in the form of punishment will not be lightened on them except those who repent and amend, but the repenting of those who increase in infidelity will not be accepted. Those who die as infidels, even if they give gold equivalent to the earth to ransom themselves from the punishment, it will not be accepted and they will experience a painful punishment and they will have no helpers.”
3-87
The reward of such persons is that, upon them is the curse of Allah and the angels and mankind, all together.
“Same to Verse No.86”
3-88
They will remain in it, the punishment will not be lightened on them nor will they be given time,
“Same to Verse No.86”
3-89
except those who repent after that and act aright, for Allah is certainly Protectively Forgiving, Merciful.
“Same to Verse No.86”
3-90
Those who became infidels after their belief then increased in infidelity, their repentance will certainly not be accepted, and those are the persons who are astray.
“Same to Verse No.86”
3-91
Those who became infidels and died while they were infidels, (even) the earth full of gold will not be accepted from anyone of them if he (offers it to) ransom (himself) with it, those are certainly the persons for whom there is a painful punishment and for them there will be no helpers. (R 9, P 3)
“Same to Verse No.86”

You will never attain righteousness unless you spend from that which you love, and whatever you spend of anything, then Allah certainly has knowledge of it.
“Achieving righteousness involves sacrifice i.e. spending from that which one loves.”
3-93
All food was lawful to the children of Israel except that which Israel (Yaqub) had made unlawful for himself before the Torah was sent down. Say, “”Bring the Torah and read it, if you are truthful.””
“Muslims used as food the flesh and milk of camel. The Jews criticized them saying that it was unlawful. They are informed that Israel (i.e. Yaqoob PBH) had made it unlawful only on himself long before the Torah was revealed to Musa (PBH), and even in the Torah with them i.e. during the period of Prophet Muhammed (PBH) it was not written as prohibited, therefore they are asked to refer to it. Even after this if they fabricate a lie against Allah (SWT) that camel is forbidden as food, then they are the unjust.”
3-94
So whoever fabricates a lie against Allah after that, then those are the persons who are unjust.
“Same to Verse No.93”
3-95
Say, “”Allah has spoken the truth, then follow the religion (dictated by) Ibrahim the upright and he was not of the polytheists.””
“Allah (SWT) has clarified the truth regarding lawful food in the religious dictates of Ibrahim (PBH) who was upright and not a polytheist. He was associated with the construction of the Islamic center i.e. Kaaba which was the first house built for mankind from where abundant beneficence in the from of guidance radiated all over the world. The foot prints of Ibrahim (PBH)are miraculously preserved although thousands of years have passed. Whoever enters Kaaba is in peace and security. Performing the Hajj for the sake of Allah (SWT) is a duty imposed on mankind, i.e. for those who have the physical and financial capacity, if anyone rejects this order, then it maybe noted that Allah(SWT) is not dependent on such religious practices for His survival as the supreme Authority in the creation, He is independent of everything, we are dependent on Him for everything.”
3-96
The first house layed down for mankind is certainly the one at Becca (Kaaba at Makkah), one (which is) blessed and a guidance for the worlds.
“Same to Verse No.95”
3-97
In it are clear signs, the place where Ibrahim stood, and whoever enters it, he is in security. And the pilgrimage to the house (Kaaba, is a duty incumbent) on human beings, for (the sake of) Allah, on him who is able to find a way to it (one who has the capacity and can afford the journey), but he who rejects, then Allah is Independent of the worlds.
“Same to Verse No.95”

Say, “”O owners of the book! why do you reject the signs of Allah when Allah is a Witness over what you do?””
“Owners of the book are asked why they are rejecting the Quran and stopping the believers from the path or Allah (SWT) while they are themselves witnesses that they are doing something wrong and when they know that Allah (SWT) also knows it. The believers are warned not to obey the Owners of the book because they intend to turn them towards infidelity. How could they reject when they are witnessing the Quran being read to them and prophet Muhammed (PBH) was himself among them. The persons who will be guided to the straight path are those who are constantly loyal to Allah(SWT) and do not waver.”
3-99
Say, “”O owners of the book! why do you stop from the path of Allah, one who believes, seeking crookedness in it while you (yourselves) are witnesses? And Allah is not unaware of what you do.””
